Good to hear! How loud is the exhaust? I want to annoy the neighbors.
Keep us updated during/after the 60+ miles! Pics and videos are also welcome, time permitting. I got quoted $400-600 in labor. Also still waiting on more info on the ECS tuning one! If it's legitimate then I would do it just to save a couple hundred dollars. Thanks the901!


Edit: Which tips did you get?

 

I got the carbon tips. The parts guy said it should be two or so weeks till I can pick em up. I figure if I had the exterior chrome package, i would have gotten the chrome ones. Besides, they end up getting black and dirty.

When the valve is open, it's nice and loud but not embarrassingly loud. It almost sounds like a subwoofer, from the inside, at low RPM. The pops and gurgles, in sport, are really nice and are pretty loud. I'm in mid/green most of the time due to traffic congestion. I flip it over to sport for various situations. I might find myself in sport more often.

I drove home and noticed the power for sure. It's a 10% bump and it felt like it till you get to the upper ranges. Once you hit the higher RPMs, it's obvious. It could be placebo but the turbo sounds louder.

The remote is larger than I expected. It works without issue from inside of the car. I'm not a huge fan of the blinking red led on it when the valve is opened. You really don't need a visual queue when that valve is open. I just place it upside down in the passenger cup holder.

I made sure the guys at the shop didn't put the sticker on that comes with the kit. Just not my kind of thing. I was actually going to do this without either of the exhaust tips but got talked in to it.

 

I didn't know you could get it without tips? Does it look unusual?

 

No. I'll have to take pics tomorrow.

 

They just use the stock tips....

 

It's a crappy picture but it's good enough.

 

I like it! The carbon tips will look really nice on it!

 

I've had the Burger Tune for 10,000 miles on my '14MCS and love it. Last Monday, (minus the Burger of course), I had the JCW Tuning Kit installed. Love it as well. Today I added the Burger, (after checking w/Terry Burger), and NOW it does run like a scalded dog. They work in conjunction with each other!!!!!!!

 

I'm curious to hear of any 2015 owners with the JCW Kit + burger. Did Terry say anything about running that setup?

 

No, I didn't ask....shoot him or Jon an email.

 

Did you get any special instructions running with your setup? What transmission do you have?

 

Manual(6)....I am on a huge loop of a drive on the west coast, (approx 2000 miles to go and have already covered about 1000 miles). I will give you a better seat-of-the-pants assessment after a bit more driving, etc. It does make a very noticeable difference and so far, NO CEL issues, etc.

 

So what all is included with the JCW Tuning Kit?

I have the Remus valved exhaust on my 2014 F56S, but would surely like the tuning boost from the remap. Especially if I can still use my Burger Stage 1. I assume I could find someone who would be interested in buying the exhaust part of the kit to help defray the expense.

And when the heck are they going to release the dog gone JCW Big Brake Kit???

 

I'd love the exhaust ...I seen ECS had the kit for I think like $1600
